Wall Steet To Open Higher On Final Trading Day

U.S. stocks are poised to open on a bright note on the final trading day of 2017. The news completes a year in which major Wall Street indexes recorded their best performance since 2013. Strengthening global economy, solid corporate earnings and low interest rates have helped the benchmark S&P 500 lock in 20 percent gains for the year, while also feeding into a nine-year old rally in global stocks.
